Lela

We arrived at the hospital, in the ambulance Jerrica held me. I couldn't look at anyone, certainly not Jerrica. Jerrica kept telling me that what happened wasn't my fault. I couldn't hear it; I blamed myself for being raped.

At the hospital, a woman doctor examined me. She explained everything she was going to do, before she did it. I lay on the examining table crying the whole time. The doctor didn't think that it would be a good idea if Jerrica was with me during the examination. When the doctor was done, Jerrica came back in and so did the cops.

The doctor said that they can't give me anything to stop me from ending up pregnant. I am outside the twenty-four period, since I was raped my first night and missing for two days. I just have to wait and see if I end up pregnant. Great I am only fourteen and I could be pregnant.

Jerrica held my hand and stroked my hair. Then she asked the doctor and the cops if I could travel. "Jem and the Holograms have a concert in Paris that they postponed to come home. We need to go back and we want to take all the girls to Paris with us."

"I think that would be a wonderful thing for her, as long as she rests as well." Doctor said.

"Paris would be a great distraction for all of the girls considering what they had been through. The girls will have to testify against the kidnappers. Lela will have to testify about the rape as well." Detective Jones said.

"I don't want to testify at all!" I cried.

"Go to Paris; don't think about the trial until the time of the trial." Detective Jones said.

"When you get back, we will set all the girls up with the counselor to help them through the trial and what they have been through." Doctor said.

The Holograms, the other Starlight girls, Rio, Danse, Anthony Julian, and Mr. Sands all showed up to pick Jerrica and me up at the hospital. From the Hospital we went to the airport and got on Mr. Sands private plane. We flew to Paris. I wish I could enjoy the flight but all I could think about was my rape and the possibility that I could end up pregnant. The only comfort I have knows that my kidnappers and my rapist are in jail. I just hope they fry for what they did to me.
